English Eager to Start New
Chapter After Split from Coltman Farms “It is an unfortunate situation, but I’ll move on and try to put something together for next year,” quoted English recently. “My wife and I built a brand-new race shop here in Benton, Illinois that our team was working out of preparing for the 2026 season. Unfortunately, now we are scrambling to try to find something, but there was no way I could relocate having a family and our race shop being located in the heart of late model racing. I want to thank Brett for the opportunity and wish him and his team nothing but success. With that being said, I’m ready to start a new chapter!” Tanner is currently looking for other opportunities heading into the 2026 season. From funding to parts to resources, anything is appreciated as he tries to put a program together for 2026. If you are interested in supporting Tanner in any way, contact him at 270-493-1589.
